Robert De Niro’s production company on Thursday was found liable for gender discrimination and retaliation claims brought by a former assistant—though the Oscar winner himself was personally cleared of those same accusations by a jury.
The decision, which came after a whirlwind eight days of testimony and five hours of deliberation, brings to a close a legal battle between De Niro and Graham Chase Robinson that has been ongoing since her resignation from Canal Productions in 2019.
Robinson, 41, was awarded $1.2 million in damages by the jury.
